Decipher this cause of death for me?

Uremia possibly? It would seem to fit with nephritis. It seems to be written both as Uremia & Uraemia (which looks like 1a.).

Chronic Nephritis certified by someone's name MD?

Anaemia? 

1a looks vaguely like like anaemia. The bottom bit is "certified by..." and the doctor's name.

Thanks all.

The bottom bit is clear now.

So it's between anaemia and Uremia.

I would of thought Chronic Nephritis would of been listed first as the cause of death?

Chronic Nephritis certified by someone's name MD?

Possibly Mr <somebody> MB (I think Batchelor of Medicine).

W.Deshpande?

W Deshpande MB. ?

That was the 20's and yet 100 yes later, just earlier this week I had to reject some sort of mucus because I couldn't read the hand writing on the request card explaining what they repair thought it was and what they wanted is to do with it. 

Also couldn't decipher who had sent it in order to contact them and ask them directly!

Looks like Uraemia to me

In respect of 1a vs 1b etc. according to Guidance for Practitioners

"

Part 1

The attending practitioner is asked to start with the immediate, direct cause of death on line a of part 1. Having started with the immediate, direct cause of death you should go back through the sequence of events or conditions that led to death on subsequent lines (lines b to d) of part 1, until you reach the condition that started the fatal sequence.

so eg (I know not real causes)

1a Hit by car

1b Crossing the road without looking

1c Urgently wanted an ice cream from van on other side of road

The irony!

🤣 whoops!

• Most likely uraemia, which is excess of urea in thr blood, due to nephritis here (kidney inflammation). Chronic kidney disease also causes anaemia, and folks used to a large "a" as a capital, rather than "A". But essentially he died of kidney failure. Nephritis s bit vague, likely either chronic (long term) infection, or more likely glomerulonephritis, which has many causes, and often difficult to diagnose precisely, even nowadays. 

It's Uraemia, as this is a plausible 1a leading from 1b Chronic nephritis. Not something people tend to die of now due to the wonder of the PrisMAX

Looks like certified by Dr Deshpande MB

Thanks all. Uraemia it is.

Just to clarify, he was only in his 20's and he died in the 1950s.

Didn't realise we had Indian Doctor's even in the 1950s.

Basically Renal Failure caused by kidney disease - if in 20s could have been auto-immune glomerulonephritis although chronic infection is another possibility.

Uraemia - renal Failure

Chronic Nephritis - Kidney disease - not specific

Very much yes.
